Brainwave entrainment is a method to stimulate the brain into entering a specific state by using a pulsing sound, light, or electromagnetic field. The pulses elicit the brain’s ‘frequency following’ response, encouraging the brainwaves to align to the frequency of a given beat.

Old age is characterized by so many body defects that people get worried as the clock turns towards old age. One of the most common defects that affect so many people as they get old is the loss of memory. Your mind is very vital in enhancing a steady memory even as your years get numbered. Brain stimulation to longevity is not an easy task and requires commitment from you if at all you want your brain to be functional till the last minute of your life. When talking of addition of years to life and addition of life to years, activities such as cardiovascular exercise, flexibility, balance exercises and strength training among other related activities come to mind. Most people concentrate on physical fitness forgetting that their brain is the most vital organ that coordinates all body functions including the physical exercises.

Brain stimulation to longevity requires you to address brain fitness. Some people will not even listen if you talk of brain fitness because they believe that there is absolutely nothing that can be done to improve the functioning of the brain. What they believe is that the functioning of their brain is bound to decline as they get old. Brain stimulation to longevity is possible. The fact that the brain is not a muscle does not make its response to activity different. Similar to body muscles, more use of the brain improves its functioning while its underutilization only serves to deteriorate it. This explains why most innovations were results of minds that worked day and night. The more the brain is engaged, the more it becomes sharper to counter the pressure.

However, brain stimulation to longevity requires slightly different techniques than those used in physical fitness. That explains the development of brainwave entrainment technology which serves not only to improve the mind power, but also to lengthen its functioning period. There are many aspects enhanced by this technology which include:

1. Learning new things. Think of an interesting topic that you know so little about. Visiting the library to learn more about the topic or searching for information about the topic on the internet will stimulate your brain. After gaining the information, behave as if you are an expert informing others of what you have learned. Teach them the little you know about the topic. After that, search for another topic. This activates the mind in an unbelievable way. You can also use other brainwave equipment such as CDs which have been produced specifically for learning purposes.

2. Watching educational programs on TV. Television programs such as documentary shows will make you discover things that you were ignorant about and step up your reasoning capacity. Try to analyze the characters in such documentaries. This will go a long way in stimulating your brain.

3. Play games that are stimulating such as crossword puzzles, card games, Sudoku, and other similar games. Such games sharpen your mind because they require critical thinking for you to make any wins.

With the development of brainwave entrainment technology, your mind can remain as fresh as ever as long as you live.
Brainwave entrainment is a method to stimulate the brain into entering a specific state by using a pulsing sound, light, or electromagnetic field. The pulses elicit the brain’s ‘frequency following’ response, encouraging the brainwaves to align to the frequency of a given beat.

This ‘frequency following’ response of brainwave entrainment can be seen in action with those prone to epilepsy. If a strobe flashes at their seizure frequency, the brain will ‘entrain’ to the flashing light, resulting in a seizure.

On the positive side, this same mechanism is commonly used to induce many brainwave states; such as a trance, enhanced focus, relaxation, meditation or sleep induction. The brainwave entrainment effectively pushes the entire brain into a certain state.

Brainwave entrainment works for almost everyone. It is a great way to lead your mind into states that you might usually have difficulty reaching, allowing you to experience what those states feel like.

THE HYPE
There is a lot of marketing hype around brainwave entrainment. It is sold with promises of increasing IQ, promoting weight loss, ‘mind-tripping’, enhancing creativity, concentration, inducing spiritual states and more.

While these claims are not entirely true, they are not altogether false either. In practice, the claims are based on an overly-simplistic view of how the brain and the brainwaves function.
THE RUB
People are very seldom deficient in a certain brainwave type in all areas of their brain. Usually the distribution is much spottier, with an excess in one area and a deficiency in another.

We are all different, especially when it comes to the distribution of our brainwaves. Boosting a certain brainwave state may be beneficial for one person, and emotionally uncomfortable for another. Without knowing each person’s starting position, entrainment can be rather ‘hit and miss’.

If brainwave entrainment leaves you with unwanted side-effects (see below) or discomfort, you’re probably encouraging a range of brainwaves that are already excessive in some area of your brain. The way around this is to get a brain map to see what your brain’s strengths and weaknesses are, and see what (if any) brainwaves could use some encouragement.

Okay, so the word doesn’t exist. I just made it up trying to come up with an interesting title after listening last night to a meditation audio tape specifically for writers.

Even though meditation is so “in” these days, I was surprised to see one aimed specially at us writers.

Lying down with my eyes closed, I listened with both scepticism and an innocent sense of wonder (I’m a sucker for anything that promises creativity and inspiration!)
The music was the typical, soothing “meditation” music which supposedly can slow down and equalize brain waves. Yes, music can modify brain waves. During ordinary consciousness, our brains work on beta waves, vibrating from 14 to 20 hertz. However, during periods of high creativity, meditation and sleep our brains work on delta waves, vibrating from .5 to 3 hertz. The slower the brainwaves, the more happier and serene we feel. Soothing music like some Baroque and New Age can actually shift consciousness by lowering our beta waves to the alpha range, from 8 to 13 hertz, thus creating a sense of lightness and well-being.

Along with the music, the lady speaker had a calm, peaceful, eerily soporific voice (no wonder it says on the tape: Do Not Use While Driving An Automobile) that seemed to “elongate” my sense of space and time.

The tape uses visualization (picture yourself as a successful writer, the ideas flowing easily), affirmations (I am a writer) and the power of intention (I wish to write and will write) to create a feeling of self power, unleash and enhance creativity and induce manifestation. Readers of Deepak Chopra should be familiar with these methods. Combining these are the ideas that we must “listen” and that we’re a “channel” for “something” that wants or needs to get written. Indeed. I must admit it was an interesting–and calming!–ride.

This tape would be especially helpful for aspiring writers who are afraid to take that first step, as well as established writers who suffer from writer’s block or would like to enhance their creativity. For those of you who are interested, the name of the tape is Becoming a Writer: Manifesting Your Writing, by Sanaya and Orin, LuminEssence Productions.

Okay so, perhaps like me you are a news junkie, and you surf all the technology and science articles, and you learn a little bit every few minutes. My grandfather used to say he would learn something new every day, but in the information age, people are learning something new every 12.5 seconds, as that is the amount of time the average Internet surfer spends on any given webpage. Still, I ask; are they actually learning anything, or are they just committing various fragments to memory? Okay so, let’s talk about this for a second and discuss my new coined term; fragment learning.

The human mind picks up information as it goes through its observations and experiences during the day. In the evening it appears that the brain coalesces all of these thoughts and imprintations on the memory connecting all the dots. Perhaps it is very similar to defragging a computer. If it is similar to this, then it makes sense that humans that spend a lot of time collecting esoteric pieces of information which are unrelated to one another, should also spend a good amount of time sleeping in complete silence to allow their minds to put all these fragments back together.

Now then, one could ask if this is a good or bad thing, as it is the new reality, this is how humans are learning today especially those homeschooled or past school learning online for pleasure. They have a question, then they look it up on Wikipedia, they read three or four paragraphs until they are satisfied, and a click out and then onto the next thing. They may click on 15 or 20 stories on the daily news, read blog posts, get updates from their friends on Facebook, all the while they are busy doing something else.

One might call this multitasking, but the human brain really doesn’t multitask is well as we think it might. That doesn’t mean it isn’t picking up information, as it surely is, although many of those fragments aren’t committed to memory very well, but if they aren’t, why do people view them? Is it the excitement which creates a chemical rush in the brain when someone learns something new? Is there another brainwave incited when a new piece of information that seems at a place pops up on the screen, is this an addiction of some sort?

Perhaps it is some of all of these things, but it is the new paradigm, and we need to find out. If this is the way humans are now taking in information at such a rapid clip, we need to make sure that some of that information, especially the most important fragments are able to stick. Plus, it appears to me that the cross-pollination of all of these fragments might actually increase innovation and creativity if it is done correctly. So that’s our challenge moving forward in my humble opinion, and I ask that you please consider all this and think on it.

OK, so here’s the problem – there’s always too much month left at the end of your money. You may even be working two jobs just to survive. Then you have a brainwave – the Internet.

Thousands of people are making money online right? We’ve all seen the adverts.

– Make Money While You Sleep
– Make A Million In 2 Weeks
– Live The Millionaire Lifestyle Now

Is this possible ? Well, yes and no. Sure, many people are making millions online, but it did not and cannot happen overnight, so don’t be fooled into thinking that it can.

To make money on the internet from scratch you first have to think of something worthwhile to sell. This could be either creating your own product or selling someone’s products as an affiliate. Then you have to setup a website or landing page to promote your product and then drive traffic to your site and convert it into sales.

Once you start making sales you can automate the process and get other people to do all the work for you then you really can make money while you sleep.

Of course there is an easier way. You can get yourself a mentor. A person who will show you how to do all of the above and you just follow along on each of the steps. There are many of these mentors out there but make sure you pick one who cares about your success and can give documented proof of his own earnings, there is no point following a guy who’s not making money himself. So choose wisely my friend.

I hope you found this article helpful and wish you every success in the future.

Oh, the virtues of the mighty nap.

Remember how you used to buck them when you were a kid. You had better things to do, like taking over a small ant colony or playing with leap frog with real frogs.

You didn’t want to lie down and sleep…but I bet if you were told you had to take a nap right now, you’d be so grateful.

Two fifteen minute coffee breaks, one hour lunch, and a half hour nap incorporated into your day might sound like the perfect work day.

It’s natural to want to nap in the afternoon. We are the only animal who doesn’t break their sleeping patterns into increments.

Our modern lives are so full of “stuff”, things we have to do, that most of us don’t get enough sleep at night. A lot of us work night shift, or have small children who wake us up at night. We carry the stress of the day into our dreams and lack of dreams, or we just can’t relax enough to have the important deep sleep required for healing and restoration.

Sleep deprivation is a norm and causes us a host of ills and ailments. We are very rarely performing at our best level.

Scientific experiments have proven that introducing a thirty minute power nap into your schedule would be most beneficial to your life. Napping can help refresh the mind, improve mental performance, boost your mood and increase productivity.

Isn’t it any wonder that companies, as a whole, don’t insist their top producing employees having a thirty minute nap every day.

Benefits of a Power Nap

Improves mental performance-learning and memory retention. During sleep, recent memory neural networks are solidified in the neocortex. This type of memory is important when working on complex tasks. It’s like concentrating on the cards in your hand while still knowing what cards are in the pile.

Increases alertness-especially in the afternoon when the body naturally wants to go to sleep.

Leaves you feeling more rested. When you take a power nap, the first two stages of the sleep cycle are activated. Electrical signals in your brain strengthen the connection between neurons involved in muscle memory, making your brain work more precisely, accurately, and faster.

Prevents you from burning out-an overload of information can stall you out. A nap regenerates you.

Gives you energy. The energy you have in the morning can be recaptured in the second part of the day after a nap.

Enhances your creativity. Your sensory perception will come back online after a few zzzzz’s. (You’re not very creative when you are sleepy).

Improves health. If you’re not sleeping enough, excessive amounts of cortisol, a natural stress hormone that kills you in all kinds of ways, will be racing through your body. Cortisol makes your abdomen fat, can give you diabetes, weaken your muscles and immune system, lower your testosterone levels, and mess with your learning ability and memory.

Releases hormones that reduce cortisol levels and minimize the damage it may have done.

Is good for your heart health. Researchers have found that men who took a nap at least three times a week, had a 37 percent lower risk of heart-related death.

Relieves headaches. A nap pushes the refresh button and sometimes that’s enough to alleviate head pain.

Improves your mood. You just feel better, more in control, and capable.

Brainwave entrainment is a fast and efficient way to induce a power nap, anywhere where you can have thirty minutes of privacy.

This powerful technology introduces specific brainwave frequencies for napping purposes to your brain. Using the following response frequency principle, the brain mimics this frequency and quickly changes your state of mind to one of total relaxation.

Revitalizing your brain, that is taking a power nap, may be the one of the nicest thing you do for yourself today.

Oh, the elusive cold sore. That burning, itching, clear-pus filled little tumor that likes to appear on your nose or lip, just in time for class pictures, a big date, or a meeting with the big boss.

A cold sore is an infection produced by the herpes simplex virus, but only 66% of those infected produce one.

Why do the other 44% pop a cold sore, almost at will?

Possibly, it has to do with stress, or more precisely, how their body responds to excessive stress.

The herpes simplex virus lies dormant on your nerve networks, and when triggered by a flood of stress hormones, will travel along the nerve route to the lips, nose, face, and other areas, and you experience an outbreak. It can appear anywhere on the body including the initial site of exposure.

Just as an aside, more young mothers and doting grandmothers have passed the “cold-sore wand” onto their unsuspecting victims, I mean babies, when they dive in for a little kiss. Cold sores can be a generational legacy.

Usual transmission of the virus is by direct contact with a sore from someone who has it.

Evidence has shown that it is transmitted by saliva or mucus membranes, several days before the person develops a visible sore. Just because grandma doesn’t have one on her lip, doesn’t mean she can’t infect you.

And yes, the virus can live on moist towels.

Herpes simplex needs living cells to replicate, which it does, on your lip, nose, face, etc.

Most common triggers are illness (fever) and injuries (ball to the face) that cause stress and will cause the virus to wake up.

Even sunlight can rouse this unwelcome guest.

The cold sore virus lives in the nervous system and most of the time, lays dormant, hiding below the surface of the nerve root cells.

When an excessive amount of stress hormones are released in the body, from experiencing high levels of stress, the immune system is compromised, and cannot keep the herpes simplex virus dormant.

Massive amounts of stress hormones like cortisol, and norpinephrine turn the body acidic and herpes loves an acid environment. The perfect acidity level for the body is about 7.4. Anything below 7 and the body is turning acid, inviting disease.

Stress burns large amounts of nutrients needed for a strong immune system, weakening its defenses even further.

Brainwave entrainment is a scientifically proven technology that introduces specific brainwave frequency patterns to the brain, with the intention of changing its state of consciousness. When you are experiencing chronic or high levels of stress, you are producing a certain brainwave frequency in excess.

To combat the effects of stress, a different brainwave frequency needs to be accessed in order to activate the release of different hormones that repair damages brought about by the stress response hormones.

Entrainment easily guides your brainwaves to the desired frequency, forging new neural pathways, for you to access naturally, after repeating sessions over a short period of time.

Brainwave entrainment is a master at dissolving the harmful effects of stress and in return, will keep those nasty cold sores asleep and out of the picture.

Stress can be either physical or psychological. Either one can be minimized with the changing of your dominant brainwave frequency.

Entrainment can keep your lips kissable.

Often, our body is not what we would like. The sedentary lifestyle that we have today, the fast food, family gatherings, little time to cook… cause your weight is greater than our share and our skyline is not as perfect as we would wish. For this reason, there are currently many methods more or less effective to help you lose weight.

The best method is, of course, eat less and move more. However, for many people this is not possible because they have no time to exercise or cook healthy meals. Other although they can do and strive daily to penalties get results, because their metabolism is slower than other people or because your body does not respond as it should. Whatever the reason, people want to lose weight and can not feel depressed and rejected by society. Sometimes these feelings drive them to eat more, and thus enters into a circle of destruction.

For this reason, there have appeared in recent years some methods to help people who can not lose weight just with diet and exercise. One of these is the power of subliminal messages. Aimed mainly at people who spend long hours at the computer, this software works all day sending subliminal messages to our brain through the computer screen. With the help of these messages, our attitude will be increasingly positive, we will be increasingly able to lose weight and therefore we will get there eventually, as one of the most important in weight loss is to have a positive attitude and confidence that we can do.

These messages work in different ways: changing the way you see food, so the need for food will become smaller, give you energy to exercise harder with more ease, help you feel better about your body; change your metabolism to make it faster, motivate you and help you keep the diet help you have more confidence in yourself and many other benefits.

You have to try subliminal weight loss to understand how this cutting-edge subliminal programming and brainwave technology open your subconscious to install and act on healthy beliefs about yourself and your body! You will see how once your subconscious mind holds an idea as true, you don’t need to use your willpower to lose weight.

You see, subliminal messages are a powerful tool to waste time is not usually taken into account, because people don’t know them yet.

Often it seems that bipolar disorder dictates and dominates the lives of sufferers, but bipolar disorder can be managed.

Managing bipolar disorder is much more than getting diagnosed and taking prescribed medication. For one thing, the medication is often inadequate to restore good health or prevent relapse.

Some of the strategies people can use to manage bipolar disorder (and live a healthier life anyway) include:

o Project management

o Rational thinking

o Meditation

o Walking / swimming

o Nutrition

PROJECT MANAGEMENT for bipolar disorder is a life-long project whose goals are to keep illness at bay and live the fullest, happiest life that you want. Because there are two goals there are two groups of strategies.

To keep illness at bay, first learn to recognise your own particular idiosyncratic symptoms of becoming unwell. Second, plan how you will respond to those early warning signs. Involve your partner and your doctor and decide together how you will stop the illness getting worse. Organise what you will do when you spot the signs of getting very sick, so that you, your doctor and partner can all spring into action, and get safety and good care for you in a crisis.

To live to the fullest, make sure you turn away from thoughts of bipolar, hospital, or how you have to rebuild your life. Get back into the mainstream. Mix with people who do not have a mental illness. Get a job, play tennis, go skating, join a choir, get some running shoes and use them! When you are ready, go back to your old dreams or create some new dreams, then follow them.

RATIONAL THINKING

In the face of difficulty, rational thinking says ‘I have a problem that I had better deal with.’ Too often, (and bipolar disorder makes this harder) we tend to say ‘I have a problem, that is too big and too hard to fix, so I will just be miserable or angry instead of dealing with it.’

When bipolar disorder is not active, we have a choice: we can think like a Stoic or we can give up and find ourselves at the mercy of events. If, when well, you assume that you will be able to find a solution to your problems, then of course you will find one!

During bipolar moments, don’t be hard on yourself if you can’t think in this way: after all, bipolar affects our thinking, attitude and outlook as well as mood.

Rational thinking also compels us to seek other remedies when the medication fails or seems to need a boost.

WALKING, SWIMMING, MEDITATION

As the mind slows and changes during meditation, rhythmic brainwaves have been observed. It has been found that rhythmic activities benefit everyone, regardless of whether it is rhythm of the mind or body: he benefits of walking briskly four hours a week have been shown to lift even moderately severe depression. Meditation, too, can improve your sense of well-being. There is only one caution with meditation: don’t practise meditation if you are more than mildly unwell, as it can make the bipolar worse.

NUTRITION

According to nutritional medicine, there are at least three biochemical subtypes of bipolar disorder. Depending on your subtype, there will be a specific range of supplements that will help. In other words, one size does not fit all, so don’t try to do it yourself with nutritional supplements. If you visit a nutritional medicine practitioner, they will carry out detailed biological tests and the results will then indicate the supplements you need.

Some nutritional supplements that may be useful in bipolar disorder include Omega-3 fatty acids, B group and other vitamins, sea salt, and alkaline water or diet.

These are just a few of the strategies you can use to manage bipolar disorder and live a fulfilled life. Part of the journey to the life you want is to research and discover strategies and remedies of your own. Find what works for you, and follow those dreams!
Brainwave entrainment is a method to stimulate the brain into entering a specific state by using a pulsing sound, light, or electromagnetic field. The pulses elicit the brain’s ‘frequency following’ response, encouraging the brainwaves to align to the frequency of a given beat.

This ‘frequency following’ response of brainwave entrainment can be seen in action with those prone to epilepsy. If a strobe flashes at their seizure frequency, the brain will ‘entrain’ to the flashing light, resulting in a seizure.

On the positive side, this same mechanism is commonly used to induce many brainwave states; such as a trance, enhanced focus, relaxation, meditation or sleep induction. The brainwave entrainment effectively pushes the entire brain into a certain state.

Brainwave entrainment works for almost everyone. It is a great way to lead your mind into states that you might usually have difficulty reaching, allowing you to experience what those states feel like.

THE HYPE
There is a lot of marketing hype around brainwave entrainment. It is sold with promises of increasing IQ, promoting weight loss, ‘mind-tripping’, enhancing creativity, concentration, inducing spiritual states and more.

While these claims are not entirely true, they are not altogether false either. In practice, the claims are based on an overly-simplistic view of how the brain and the brainwaves function.
THE RUB
People are very seldom deficient in a certain brainwave type in all areas of their brain. Usually the distribution is much spottier, with an excess in one area and a deficiency in another.

We are all different, especially when it comes to the distribution of our brainwaves. Boosting a certain brainwave state may be beneficial for one person, and emotionally uncomfortable for another. Without knowing each person’s starting position, entrainment can be rather ‘hit and miss’.

If brainwave entrainment leaves you with unwanted side-effects (see below) or discomfort, you’re probably encouraging a range of brainwaves that are already excessive in some area of your brain. The way around this is to get a brain map to see what your brain’s strengths and weaknesses are, and see what (if any) brainwaves could use some encouragement.

Of the many remedies to cure insomnia, we can find those that work to some degree, and then fail. For instance, there are sleeping pills, which whether they are the over the counter variety or prescription medications can be dangerous and habit forming. Aside from this, their effectiveness wears off after a month or two, and no amount of them thereafter can do any help – then there are the side effects. Some other remedies can be quite costly, such as hypnosis, with expensive sessions running months or even years long.

Other remedies have much better results in trying to cure insomnia, such as those which use sound patterns in music or rhythmic audio tracks which are conducive to the certain types of brainwave activities which occur during healthy sleep. It used to be that the best way for this to be implemented was to use binaural rhythmic pulses – using stereo headphones, different tones and pulses were sent to each ear, just slightly off frequency to eachother, and when the brain would find the mid range between them in processing this data, it would produce the desired activity to promote sleep.

The problems which arose from this however, is that it was difficult (if not uncomfortable) to sleep with headphones on without knocking them off and waking up. Now, with isochronic tones and pulses, there’s no need to use stereo headphones – just a regular CD player is fine. Using audio therapies for this purpose are the best of all remedies to cure insomnia because you aren’t trying to affect your brain’s activities chemically, but naturally through listening to sounds. Moreover, this is safe, nonthreatening, non-intrusive, not habit forming in the least, and after a month or two of sessions, you’re completely cured.

Of all the brainwave frequencies displayed by the human brain, perhaps the most fascinating is the Gamma wave, around 40 Hertz. When in a Gamma state, the brain seems capable of remarkable synergy, exhibiting a high level of holistic functioning that unites multiple senses, perceptions, and memories. In short, we become almost super-human. Interestingly, this state is commonly observed in experienced Tibetan monks engaging in a “loving-kindness” meditation. As we shall see, Gamma waves are not the only benefit of this practice.

What Is Loving-Kindness Meditation?

Loving-kindness, or Metta Bhavana in Buddhist terms, is an ancient practice intended to teach us that happiness comes from loving others and empathizing with them. It is actually the foundational meditation in a four-part series, with the next steps being compassion (empathy for the suffering of others); empathetic joy (rejoicing in the well-being of others); and equanimity (acceptance of both joy and suffering, whether our own or of others). Loving-kindness creates harmony in our relationship with ourselves as well as with others, replacing anger, resentment, and hurt with patience, consideration, and forgiveness.

Since we are looking at the effects of loving-kindness from a more scientific viewpoint as well, it is worth noting that no less a scientist than Albert Einstein essentially prescribed the same practice:

A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.

How to Practice Loving-Kindness Meditation

The cultivation of loving-kindness starts with what should be the easiest subject – yourself – and works up from there in the following progression:

Yourself
A good friend
A neutral person, like someone who serves you in a store
Someone with whom you are having problems
All sentient beings

Various techniques are employed to cultivate the feeling of loving-kindness. Visualize yourself or the other person being happy and smiling back at you. Reflect upon that person’s positive qualities. Use your own affirmations to reinforce feelings of warmth towards yourself and others. And use mantras, repeating words or phrases like “loving-kindness,” pausing between repetitions to observe the impact on your emotions. It is advised that you refrain from thinking about people to whom you are romantically attracted, since lust is not the emotion we are seeking to arouse!

The ultimate objective was expressed beautifully by one of the leading websites on Buddhism, wildmind.org: “Eventually we want to become like an emotional bonfire: a steady blaze of emotional warmth that will embrace any sentient being that we become aware of.”

A New Twist

While several prominent guides to Buddhist meditation recommend guided meditation CDs, they do not seem to have grasped the potential of adding brainwave entrainment techniques to the audio soundtrack. This is almost certainly because they are approaching meditation from a traditional, Buddhist perspective, including the recitation of prayers written by the Buddha himself. But we should not necessarily allow respect for traditions that are over 2,500 years old to blind us to the teachings of modern science. If we can see from EEG scans of experienced meditators that loving-kindness gives rise to Gamma waves, would it not make sense to encourage their formation? Listening to brainwave audio designed to entrain Gamma waves need not distract in any way from the familiar processes of visualization and affirmation. In fact, I believe it enhances the process tremendously by both increasing focus and encouraging whole-brain thinking and feeling. And that has to be good news, for the world really doesn’t need to wait one day longer for more love and compassion.
